It’s been more than eight years since I moved from the US to Beijing. When I graduated from high school, I left my parents to go to college. We lived in different cities, 31 we still stayed in touch through phone and email. It was easy to 32 my mom. But living in Beijing has made it a bit more 33 .
You see, we’re separated not only by distance, but also by 34 . My hometown is on the opposite side of the planet from Beijing — it’s a 12-hour difference. This means that when it’s 35 in Beijing, it’s night in my hometown. This can make it difficult to find a suitable time to communicate with my family.
But we make it work 36 . We just try to choose times that are 37 for both of us. This means I usually call my mom late in the evening when she’s taking her lunch break. We talk about our work, the weather, and whatever else is 38 in our lives. It’s nice to check in with her and see how she’s doing. And of course, I try to visit home 39 . About once every other year, I’ll fly back to the US to see my parents and sisters for the holidays.

The space city would always have sunlight. A(n) 46 mirror about two kilometres in diameter would float above the city. It would reflect (反射) 47 to small mirrors that would lead it into the city. Shutters (百叶窗) would be used to 48 when sunlight comes in. It would be closed to create night-time.
The 49 of the city could be fixed at about 10,000 people. Farmers would be able to 50 plan how much food would be needed for this number of people. About 44 square metres of vegetable plants would be needed for each person, and just over five square metres of grassland.

Are you an eating-lover? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program A Bite of China? It’s a TV program on Chinese delicious food which has been produced by CCTV. Is there any holiday that isn’t celebrated with special festival food? Here are several traditional Chinese foods:
Noodles are a symbol of long life in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with its candles lit in many western countries. Since noodles mean long life, it is considered very unlucky to cut it off.
Although westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on the plate, in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact, at a party it is a tradition to serve the whole fish last, pointed towards the most valued guest. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for fish, yu, sounds like the word for richness or plenty, and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.
A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat Festival is Zongzi. This tasty dish is made of rice dumplings with meat, peanuts or other delicious food in bamboo leaves. The tradition of Zongzi is meant to remind us of a great man, Qu Yuan in Chinese history.

During the years people change a lot. Five years is enough to compare yourself now and then. I think that I have changed a lot in the past five years.
Firstly, there are changes in my thoughts. Five years ago my thoughts were the same as a child’s. I believed that the world was a place without problems. I thought that I could always have time for games and friends wouldn’t change. Also I was sure that if I had any problem, my parents could always be around me offering help. Now I still believe that the world is a great place to live in, but sometimes there are different problems you have to face. And at times you have to deal with these problems alone without any help. And that is one of the changes that have happened to me in the past five years. Now I’m much more responsible （负责任的） and serious than five years ago.
Secondly, there are some changes in my interests. Now I spend less time with friends and I spend most of my time studying for exams. Five years ago, it wasn’t so. I believed that there was nothing more important than playing football or watching cartoon movies during those days.
Although I have changed in some ways, there are some similar ways between now and then. For example, I still like spending time with friends. And I am still sure that childhood is the best time in our life.
63．Five years ago, the writer thought he could ________ .
A．help his parents B．always live with his parents
C．have a lot of trouble D．have the same friends
64．What does the writer believe now?

C．Children have no problems. D．The world is a good place to live in.
65．When the writer was a child, he liked ________ best.

66．What does the writer mainly tell us?
A．What he did during the five years. B．How he spent five years.

Now more new marine（海洋）scientists has come of age. One of them is Cousteau’s Fabien Cousteau. He grew up on his grandfather’s ships. It is unsurprising that he became interested in the sea at anything age.
Aquarius, built off the coast of Florida, U. S., is the world’s only underwater lab. It will allow scientists to better understand the sea. Fabien Cousteau is now planning to build a new undersea lab. It would be set up 18 meters underwater in the Caribbean Sea. It covers an area of 370 square meters.

There would be enough room for work, exercising and sleeping.
There will be problems with living inside of the lab for weeks on end. For example, there needs to be UV light（紫外线）. Without it, scientists living in the lab will become ill. They won’t be able to grow food, either.
“It is expected that a new invention can get enough UV light in the lab, and then scientists will be about grow food, such as vegetables, salads and teas,” said Cousteau.
67．What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to（指的是）? ________
